All students, including those who have had some core courses substituted, must complete a minimum of 43 graduate credit hours. Of these, 12 credit hours may be transferred from an approved graduate program offered by another university. Approved universities include AACSB-accredited business schools, as well as international business schools with which UNM has a current written exchange agreement.
